Neuroscience
Artificial Intelligence
Signal Processing

Background:

Electroencephalogram (EEG) signal analysis is vital for emotion classification, but traditional methods rely heavily on manual feature extraction.
Transformer models offer automatic feature extraction capabilities, yet their application in EEG-based emotion recognition remains underexplored.

Purpose of the Study:

To propose a novel Transformer and Convolutional Neural Network (TCNN) model for automatic spatial-temporal EEG feature learning.
To enhance the accuracy and efficiency of emotion classification from EEG signals.

Main Methods:

The proposed EEG ST-TCNN model incorporates position encoding and multi-head attention to capture channel and timing information.
Parallel transformer encoders extract spatial and temporal features, which are then aggregated by a CNN for classification.
Softmax is utilized for the final classification of emotions.

Main Results:

The EEG ST-TCNN model achieved 96.67% accuracy on the SEED dataset.
On the DEAP dataset, the model attained accuracies of 95.73% (arousal-valence), 96.95% (arousal), and 96.34% (valence).

Conclusions:

The developed ST-TCNN model demonstrates superior performance in EEG-based emotion classification compared to existing studies.
The model shows significant potential for practical applications in automatic emotion recognition systems.
